This is not the news that I want to share, but I know that Dick would want everyone to know.
Dick was diagnosed with acute leukemia and is gravely ill. After three treatments this past week, he has chosen quality time with his family rather than quantity. He has gone home from St. Luke’s Hospital and will be entering hospice care soon. His spirits are good.
Dick and Arlene have given a good portion of their lives to the sport of trapshooting and they are hoping that everyone will continue to support the sport we all love. He gave best wishes to everyone and said that he will “see you all again on the other side!!!!”
Please say a prayer for Dick and his family.
